Maria Sholder, a disabled old woman, spent a lot of her money on online delivery but didn’t receive anything in return and was left with no food to feed her grandchildren.
The 48-year-old mother of three has been suffering from MRSA and could not visit the supermarket herself to get something to eat. She has been using the online delivery service of the same store for a long time but has never faced such an issue before. She is very disappointed at their customer service now.
She placed her first order on October 13 that didn’t arrive due to some technical problems.point 191 | The money had been taken out but was not refunded even after 14 days.point 247 |
The second order was placed on October 26, but again her order didn’t arrive as there was some error in the system.point 96 | Then again, on October 27, she submitted her order, but the store management told her that the paperwork was misplaced and the money would be refunded soon.point 226 | 1
Due to her disease, Maria is not in a condition to visit the store herself. She has nobody to do the grocery for her. She has every proof that she paid for all the deliveries but didn’t get anything in return. By now, the mother of three didn’t have enough money to get more food and had to send back her grandchildren who were staying with her.
On Friday morning, Maria got her first delivery from Asda.point 167 | A spokesperson from Asda has apologized for everything and accepted that they had to cancel the disabled woman’s order due to some issues, but now they are working to refund all the money.point 325 |
This type of misconduct happens rarely, but the staff of Asda is sorry for the inconvenience Maria had faced.point 91 | 1
